A Look at Gold Price Trends Over the Last Decade

By Golden Nugget Prospecting

Gold has always held a special place as a symbol of wealth and security. Over the past decade, the price of gold has experienced significant shifts influenced by global economic events, geopolitical tensions, and changing market demands.

From 2015 to 2025, gold prices started relatively steady but saw a remarkable surge during periods of economic uncertainty — notably during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, when gold prices hit historic highs. Investors flocked to gold as a safe haven amid market volatility and inflation fears.

In recent years, gold has maintained its appeal as a hedge against inflation and currency fluctuations, especially as global economies navigate post-pandemic recovery and geopolitical unrest. While prices have shown some fluctuations, the overall trend confirms gold’s enduring value and resilience.
